other applications such as:
•Grouting
•Fireproofing
•Surface Bonding
•Acoustical Plasters
•Interior & Exterior Plastering
•Pumping Pool Lining
The intent of this manual is to promote the best use of the machine, providing component description,
operation, trouble shooting and, most importantly, safety instructions.
This manual should be read thoroughly and understood by everyone responsible for the operation and
maintenance of the machine. With proper care and maintenance, the machine will provide long and

Safety
A. Hydraulics
1. Check to make sure that all hydraulic valves are in neutral or off position before starting
power unit.
2. Never disconnect a hydraulic hose while power unit is running.
3. Remove battery cables when working on hydraulics.
4. Never reset a hydraulic relief to a setting greater than 2000 PSI.
5. Inspect all hydraulic hoses regulary for wear or soft spots. Replace hoseif either is found.
6. Replacement high pressure hoses should be rated for 2000 PSI or more.
7. Replacement low pressure hoses should be rated for 1000 PSI or more.
8. Use only a qualified hydraulic mechanic to work on hydraulic system or components.
9. When possible, replace all components with same parts as originally supplied with
machine.
10. Keep hydraulic oil off hot engine components and exhaust because the oil will ignite at
high temperatures.
Caution: Failure to observe the preceding warnings can result in severe bodily injury,
including loss of limbs, loss of sight, and possible death!

B. Machinery
1. Read Operations Manual before using machine.
2. Read and observe all WARNING and CAUTION signs before starting engine.
3. Never remove any guard while engine is running.
4. When necessary to remove any guard, turn the key to stop the engine from running and
disconnect the battery cables.
5. Never fill fuel tank while engine is hot.
6. Do not allow fuel to spill. If a spill occurs, wash away water and use an absorbent to
soak up any that might have spilled onto the ground. If no absorbent is available, use dry
Strong-Seal MS –2.
7. Remove absorbent away from work area before starting engine.
8. Keep a fully charged fire extinguisher, of at least equal rating to the one supplied, on the
machine at all times.
9. Never operate equipment with excessive loads, as this will cause overloading of machine
components resulting in accelerated wear and possible personal injury.
10. Keep electrical shut-off switch mounted on mixer free of any concrete build up, making
sure at all times that the switch is operating properly.
11. Inspect material hose daily for wear or damage. If necessary to replace, do so with hose
of equal quality as that originally provided with machine.
12. Never point hose or nozzle toward anyone, particularly when spraying.
13. Never remove nozzle or disconnect hose without first running the material pump in
reverse until pressure gauge reading is “0” PSI.
14. All personnel working around and operating the machine must wear protective clothing,
safety glasses, dust mask and gloves.
8
15. Do not spray water on hot engine or machine components.
16. Always disconnect battery cables and remove battery when not in use.
17. Keep empty bags and other flammable materials away from engine, as they may ignite.
18. Loose clothing should not be worn on or around the machine when running.
19. Do not disconnect any hydraulic, water or air hose while the machine is running.
Caution: Failure to observe the preceding warning can result in severe bodily injury,
including loss or limbs, loss or sight, and possible death!
C. Water System
1. Never connect to a water supply, such as a fire hydrant, without first opening valve and
allowing water source to purge itself until clean water is present.
2. Do not transport machine at speeds in excess of 15 MPH with water in storage tank.
3. Drain water tank, water pump, water meter and all water lines if the potential of a freeze
exists. All drains should be left open.
4. Never point high pressure sprayer wand toward anyone. Water is discharged at high
pressures and can cause severe injury.
5. Be sure that all couplings on hose used to convey water from source to storage tank are
tight and properly locked to mating connections.
6. Inspect all water hoses daily for weathering, cracks, cuts or for damage of any kind that
may allow a hose to rupture or break.
Caution: Failure to observe the preceding warning can result in severe bodily injury,
including loss or limbs, loss or sight, and possible death!

D. Air System
1. Refer to Quincey air compressor owner’s manual before working on the air compressor.
2. All air lines should be rated for at least 150 PSI and have a minimum 2:1 safety factor.
3. Drain air tank daily.
4. Inspect all air hoses daily and replace if any show wear, cuts or breaks.
5. Do not kink air hose, as this can cause hose to rupture.
6. Do not point nozzle toward anyone, as the air stream is being discharged at high pressure
and travels at high velocities which may result in injury should it strike someone.
7. Rinse off air tank pop off valve as frequently as necessary to prevent buildup. Pop off
valve should blow air when ring on top is pulled up and stop when ring on top is let go (if
air tank is pressurized). Check pop off valve function daily and replace immediately if it
does not blow air when ring on top is pulled up.
Caution: Failure to observe the preceding warning can result in severe bodily injury,
including loss or limbs, loss or sight, and possible death!
